South Asian Heritage Month

We are proud to honour our residents of South Asian heritage by celebrating their history, culture, and impact in the community.

South Asian Heritage Month 2024 takes place from Thursday 18 July to Saturday 17 August.

Free to be me

This year’s theme is ‘Free to be me’.

Throughout the month, we will be sharing stories of South Asian people who live, work and run businesses in Richmond upon Thames. We will learn about family histories, traditions, cultures, and cherished memories. The stories also provide an insight into how their heritage has influenced their personal journeys.
